We like:
Excellent selection of games; HDMI port; large hard drive
We don't like:
Noisy DVD drive and cooling fan; gigantic power supply; no built-in wireless networking; no built in HD DVD drive
CNET UK judgement:
While it's neither a must-have upgrade for existing 360 owners nor as feature-packed as the PS3, the Xbox 360 Elite's combination of top-notch gaming and digital media features make it the current game console of choice
